Politics in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare still is, but it does not apply to a specific agenda

In an interview for Game Informer art director Infinity Ward Joel Emley (Joel Emslie) said the story Call of Duty: Modern Warfare not related to politics. This caused a reasonable question: how is it possible in the School subaceria, where politics was always? It turned out that everything is not so simple.

The publication talked about this topic with two studio staff: a gameplay-director of the campaign Jacob Minkoff (Jacob Minkoff) and the director of the narrative Taylor Kurosaki (Taylor Kurosaki). According to them, the question of whether the game is political, originally meaningless, because “politics” is too broad concept.

Speaking about the apoliticality of the game, the authors mean that they do not tell the story of the specific governments of the countries that are depicted in the game – for example, you will not see Donald Trump (Donald Trump). Although geopolitics, without which developers emphasize, modern war is impossible, in the game, of course, is present.

The developers strive to talk more about political concepts like colonialism, occupation, independence and freedom – the authors may not be voiced on these topics, but they are sometimes found in their games.

Topics about which the studio in Modern Warfare, like indirect war and superpower, governing the Middle Eastern countries, with equal success could be represented both in Afghanistan of the 80s and in our time. Therefore, the militant goes beyond certain political events.

The developers are worried about the question: what happens to people whose hands were fought after other people’s wars, after they are left with nothing? There were many such examples in history, including the consequences of wars in Afghanistan and Vietnam, the authors recall.

Infinity Ward wants to show the views of all the key aspects of the conflict, not to mention which one is true. Developers note that in the modern world there is no pure good or evil. Instead of them-a gray zone where the justified interests of different groups of people come across in their own way.

In general, politics in the future Modern Warfare, Of course, there is, but it is represented much wider than the specific summons of modernity.

"… in the modern world there is no pure good or evil. Instead of them-a gray zone where the justified interests of different groups of people come across in their own way."Nevertheless, Russian soldiers who are raping little girls and genocusing my hands on the right and left in the game will be)) Grace is such a grayness. Well, plus, perhaps there will be “good” Russian working on SAS and killing evil Russians. That’s all the grayness.

And suddenly the brave Americans are swollen with white phosphorus by a large accumulation of the enemy, but it turns out that it was civilian … oh, the wrong game.

Nevertheless, we again have a “Russian renegade” (with a thousandth personal army, and the Kremlin is against, but powerless, the og), and the “grayness” of amers/Britas will limit ourselves to excessive brutality in relation to terrorists (which are not sorry for certain). In the best case, in the end, the “true” Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will arrive at the end, when the valiant SAS has already smashed the “Army of the General of the Traitor” to the puffs. Or again the third world will begin, but in the sequel
Oh yes, we also have a look there from the side of the rebel-Partizan_ki in Nesiria? Well then, she will fight for the “Western” faction, shooting the same rebels, but pro-Russian/terrorist, will encounter steep mercenaries a couple of times (but not with the US forces), can make a couple of unpleasant, but necessary things from which they will inflate the drama. At the end, the Marines/SAS will help, it will die optionally heroically.

Of course, I understand that the witch never changes, but it’s not difficult not to copy MW again, since we have restarting? And, especially, try to travel on a real politicalate right now, when the situation is quite inflated in the world? Maybe I’m stupid, or all this is an “order from the State Department”, but Kamon, now 2k19, how many times have they said that the games are important and affect culture – so maybe, suddenly, we will not again pushing the youth Russophobia, but, activist? Of course, I understand that it was for this reason that you have a witch in space, but is it really difficult to think of a new occasion to shoot down the Mi-24 of the minigans? Although Lol, in Russia, is now the most incomprehensible sales market, indeed, what I am talking about ..

The evil Russian general kills people in Syria, and brave Americans save defenseless Syrians.

Well, ash stump, that there is no question of any political agenda.

This is true. When the next Hollywood director wants to make a military film with a bunch of extras, tanchiks and volume Cruz at the storm of a fighter, US Army can provide him with all this. But the script will be written under the dictation of the Pentagon or at least with ideologically correct editors. It will be logically correct to assume that the same thing with games. Dice of course can buy dozens of trunks in any weapon store, but in order to digitize an armored personnel carrier or write down the sound of an attack aircraft’s engines, you need to agree with the army authorities.

Well, why was it necessary to spoil the plot?

On the rights of sarcasm

no, at first it was angry RussianBut not really Zakhaev.
He had a friend in the Middle East (I don’t remember what they called, let’s say the Ahmed-Merged Terourist)

Then there was an evil Russian Makarov (the successor of the Zakhaev case and the president’s friend), who muddied the whole garbage with Shepard.

There was still there good Russian Nikolai in the form of the traffic police and then, when everyone understood the mistake, the Russian Federation and the United States began to be friends. Good fairy tale with Happy end)

As I understand it, from the Kungurov’s report, the main anthonist will be the “Ryusian” general. The developers promise everything very gray and ambiguous, but hard to believe.

So I did not understand, the game can already be renamed Call of Duty Cranberryfare (Cranberry = Cranberry) or early? It’s just that in the same COD MW2 the most important bad was not Russian, but the American General Shepard, who planned the attack of the Russian Federation on the USA so and cranberries in his mouth were not much felt.

Of course, it was impossible to do without a necessary share of politics, especially taking into account the promises that the game would almost be displayed on the sorry of the day.
